Pet care experience

Vet Tech takes care of your pets

Currently I am a full-time pet sitter. I can stay with your pets in your home, where they are most comfortable! I will carefully follow your instructions and stick to your pets' schedule to make sure your little ones stay happy, safe, and healthy. While I'm taking care of them, your pets are my priority, and I can spend as much time with them as you need. I spent the past decade+ working as a Licensed Veterinary Technician (nurse) in a 24hr veterinary ER/ICU. Here I learned all about many different kinds of pets, and specifically what type of care each of them needs. Although we treated various small animal species, dogs and cats made up the majority of our patients most of the time. In 2019 I decided to take a break from emergency medicine to experience something new, although I still wanted to do something where I could be helping pets to have the best lives possible. Pet sitting has turned out to be the perfect match! I’ve also been a dog and cat mom myself for most of my life. My most recent puppy, Alabama, passed away a couple years ago at the age of 16, and I still miss her so much every single day, but I currently have no pets of my own. I know 100% that your pet is a member of your family and should always be cared for like family. So, if you're looking for a pet sitter who you can trust to stay with your pets and keep them safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away, then please feel free to contact me... Thanks so much for your time and consideration!

Jennifer was great to work with! She sent lots of photos, paid attention to details, and was very tidy (she even washed the dog bowls!). We had to change our travel plans twice and she was kind and flexible with that hassle. We would definitely hope to work with her again.

Jennifer went above and beyond for our week long house sitting stay for our two pups. She provided daily updates and took them out for walks (even in the rain in January) to ensure they got their exercise. The house was spotless, which is the best thing to come back home to after a long time away, along with two happy and tired dogs.

JJ is simply a gem! She took exceptional care of our 2 dogs, one with special needs as he had IVDD surgery earlier this summer. She sent multiple pics along with her daily updates. When it was time to say goodbye my dogs both snuggled and kissed her like they knew their time with her was coming to and end and they were going to miss her. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and will hire her anytime we leave town. I’m so grateful we had the good fortune to secure her services, and I know my dogs miss her and would gladly have her watch them again.
